Episode 318: The Wrongful Conviction of Toforest Johnson

A pair of friends out at a nightclub had no idea they would be implicated in a murder across town. The shaky word of a scared teenage runaway and the lies of a woman willing to say anything to get paid were enough to put one of the men on death row. After two decades, will justice finally be served? Or will Alabama execute an innocent man? This week’s episode is The Wrongful Conviction of Toforest Johnson. Click here for this week's show notes.

re the last story (with the audio): Loch Carrie isn't that far from RAF Lossiemouth, one of the busiest RAF bases in the UK, and the RAF does a LOT of training over those "middle of nowhere" parts of Scotland. Even if planes weren't readily visible, that kind of sound can travel long distances in the topography of the Highlands. I know the audio wasn't that good -- but I thought 'military jets' the instant I heard it. (And I've heard a LOT of military jets in my time!) 😁

I used to work as a caregiver for 3 years and worked with many dementia residents, and there was only 1 resident who had her phone taken away. She watched TV all day, and whenever a commercial came on saying stuff like "If you experienced/were involved with/worked at X, you might be entitled to compensation!" Every time, without fail, she'd call the number and say she was. She would also trying buying random stuff off the TV by calling the numbers. Her brother eventually removed her phone.

This episode discusses one of many reasons why I will absolutely demand to be cremated when I die. and placed in a small little grave, preferably in one of those walls at cemeteries where a bunch of the cremated people are. Takes up less room, no chance of being turned into a zombie someday, I'm not as gross. And other reasons. It's a win win! I don't want my meat sack sitting around taking up space after I die.
